I just finished it and enjoyed it a lot. They definitely spiced up the story with a lot of fictionalized drama, but it was entertaining. My primary gripe was how fast development was portrayed (let me go ahead and whip up a working demo of this game on experimental hardware in about 15 seconds, no problem) and the effortless international travel, but that's understandable to keep the story moving.

I would also recommend overriding the AppleTV+ UI and letting the credits run for a bit. There are some neat home movies from the real Henk Rogers from his trip to Moscow.

Yep, when I was watching it I was thinking "there's no way that happened, or that, or that, or that and there definitely wasn't a CAR CHASE to the airport" etc and so on

Either way, I really enjoyed it and recommend that everyone watch The Gaming Historian's - The Story of Tetris
